WW2 ITALIAN MVSN FASCIST LEADER DAGER.

A very good example of a rare and difficult to find Italian Fascist MVSN 1935 pattern dagger for officers. This is the model dagger worn by the Italian Fascist black shirts and it is the rare officers model which is much higher quality and much more harder to find than the enlisted type. Fine quality brown wooden grip. Crossguard of the MVSN pattern. The blade is in excellent condition showing just some faint age spotting. Black painted metal scabbard still retains at least 98% original paint with out insignia which is totally correct for the officers version of this dagger, large metal belt loop to the reverse side is again the officers type which can be opened for easy fitment to the officers MVSN belt. Although the enlisted version of this dagger is found occasionally the officers version is much harder to find and is seldom offered for sale, it has been a number of years since I have had an example to offer for sale. Purchased privately in England from a house clearance dealer specializing in deceased estates, this example has not been in a collection before. [Condition: Exc++]
